Chapter 212: Conspiracy and Trickery, Not Yet Successful
Perhaps finding the rag stuffed in her mouth troublesome, they found yellow tape and sealed Athena’s mouth. The moment Athena was sealed, she felt as if only her nose could breathe.
In complete darkness, time passed second by second. The warehouse immediately returned to silence. She couldn’t wait to die here, couldn’t wait for someone to save her. She had to learn to save herself!
She tried to struggle free from the restraints on her hands, but they were too tight, showing no signs of loosening!
Just as she felt helpless, the iron door was opened again. The footsteps were light, but Athena still heard them. She held her breath, wanting to hear clearly who it was.
The person’s footsteps were slow, and they opened the door very cautiously, unlike the group from before. Her heart skipped a beat. Could someone be plotting against her?
Her nerves were once again extremely taut. The next second, someone tore the tape from her mouth and asked with concern, “Are you okay?!”
Athena was a little stunned. It was a young woman asking her. Her mouth was freed, but her throat was dry and painful. She could only nod to indicate she was alright and shake her head, wanting the woman to remove the blindfold.
The woman immediately understood Athena’s intention and reached out to remove the black cloth that had been covering her eyes for who knows how long. The bright light stung her eyes, making it difficult to open them. She realized how wonderful it was to see the light after being in darkness!
The woman efficiently untied her restraints. Athena turned her head and gave a weak smile, “Thank you for saving me. Who are you?”
The moment the woman saw Athena, she was shocked. Her whole body trembled, and she said with a shaky voice, “Sister Qing, Sister Qing, you’ve finally appeared!”
The woman hugged Athena and started crying, constantly saying, “Sister Qing, you’re back, you’re finally back!”
Athena was taken aback by the woman’s embrace. Sister Qing? Was this the Qing Tian everyone talked about? No, it must have been her former name!
（ A note once again: Athena is Qing Tian, and Qing Tian is Athena. It’s just that Doctor Alexander hypnotized Qing Tian, making her forget all her past! Confused readers, please remember! ）
The woman alertly began to remove everything binding Athena and looked at Athena with a serious expression, asking, “Sister Qing, how were you kidnapped?!”
Athena looked at the unfamiliar woman before her with a question, “Do we know each other? Before!”
The woman looked at Athena in surprise, saying in disbelief, “Sister Qing, I’m Shishi, Song Shishi, your dearest sister! You don’t recognize me anymore? And why did you dye your hair like this?!”
Athena tried hard to search her mind for the name Song Shishi, but it was blank!
Song Shishi didn’t say much and directly pulled Athena away, “Let’s not dwell on this issue for now, let’s just get out of here!”
Athena’s legs were weak and she couldn’t walk. As she was pulled quickly, she fell to the ground. Song Shishi looked at Athena nervously, feeling heartbroken. They hadn’t seen each other for years, and this was their reunion!
If Grandfather’s spirit in heaven saw this, please protect Sister Qing and keep her safe!
Song Shishi crouched down, held Athena, and slowly left!
Not long after they walked outside, a man chased after them from behind. Song Shishi glanced at the weak Athena, then at the man a few hundred meters away. She crouched down and said to Athena, “Sister Qing, get on my back. I’ll carry you!”
Athena was still hesitating. Song Shishi shouted loudly, “Hurry up and get on! Do you want to be caught again?!”
Athena steeled herself and climbed onto Song Shishi’s back. For the first time, she felt that there was such warmth in this world. Suddenly, her heart warmed, her nose stung, and tears began to flow.
Even carrying someone, one couldn’t run as fast as a normal, healthy man. Soon, the man caught up. Song Shishi ran with all her might, but ultimately couldn’t escape her destiny of being caught.
The two of them, with a sudden movement, fell.
Athena asked with concern, “Shishi, are you okay?”
This sentence came out of her mouth completely on its own. Not only did Song Shishi find it incredible, but Athena herself was surprised!
“Where else do you think you can run? These abandoned factories stretch for hundreds of kilometers, you can’t even get a taxi!” the man said, lowering his hat!
Song Shishi knew that this place was too remote to get a car, but her car was parked around the corner not far away. If they had been discovered a little later, they might have been able to escape!
But why did this uncle’s voice sound so familiar, like I’ve heard it before!
Athena stopped Song Shishi and said to the man, “She has nothing to do with this. If you want to kill or torture, do it to me!”
The man narrowed his eyes, still covering his face, and said with a cold laugh, “Neither of you will get away!”
After speaking, he was about to call for backup when Song Shishi suddenly grabbed a nearby stone and smashed it at the man with all her anger and strength!
